Water Bottles?

Sasha...thanks so much for starting this group.

I have a question for y'all...water? We all need it. I've really committed to NOT buying bottled water. Here's the catch...I travel alot for work...I'm on the road 3-4 days a week. I can't carry around my own water filter. I do have my own water bottle, but it's Nalgene...still plastic? Any other suggestions? I hear that the Sigg bottles have some problems too.

Thanks for any suggestions.

We sold these at the food co-op I worked at last year. They were very popular and always running out of stock.

Stainless steel is lighter and more environmentally friendly than plastic; it's also recyclable.

We have Nalgene bottles. Although they are plastic, you only need one! (As long as you don't lose it.)

I salute your commitment to avoid bottled water! So very few of those bottles are recycled, and the ones that are get made into something else entirely, while more and more new bottles for water are churned out. Way to go!; ▶ Reply to This
